Medical Image Viewer Control Included in LEADTOOLS Medical Imaging |
All you need to build a medical viewing application
The LEADTOOLS Medical Image Viewer Control is a high-level component for building medical display applications such as DICOM viewers, view stations, teleradiology solutions, and high-end diagnostic workstations found in radiology and other medical specialty departments. Whether you are building a PACS for radiology, cardiology, mammography, ophthalmology, pathology, dermatology, dentistry or any other specialty, this control will eliminate the complexity from your project and give you a solid foundation you can rely on.
Key Features:
- Display medical grayscale and colored images including MRI, CT, Digital X-Ray, Ultrasound and much more.
- Ability to adjust the screen layout both manually and programmatically. For example the screen shot below shows an MRI and an XA series displayed side by side, the MRI series is shown as 2X2 images while the XA is shown as 1X1.
- Support to change the scale and offset of a single sub-cell.
- Support to add different images with different sizes to the same cell.
- Includes a ActiveSubCell changed event that fires when the active sub-cell has been changed.
- Support to reset Window Level, Position, Rotation, Zoom
- Support to add and remove pages or images to the medical viewer cells.
- Support to display overlay information on the images, which is an essential feature for any high-end medical viewer. The programmer has full control over the text to be displayed and how it should be positioned and sized inside each window. The control also comes with a set of built-in overlays such as window center and window width values, field of view and much more.
- Built-in tools:
- Window level (brightness and contrast).
- Zooming or scaling an image.
- Panning or moving an image.
- Image magnification.
- Stacking or moving from one image to another in a series of images with a single mouse or button click.
- Annotation
- Annotation created event to notify when a new annotation object is created by the user.
- Annotation clicked event to notify when an annotation has been clicked.
- Support for changing fore and back color of the text object.
- Support to rotate, flip and reverse the annotation container.
- Load and save the annotation objects that are drawn on the control.
- Region of Interest.
- Load and save region information that is drawn on the control.
- Region change event to notify when a region is created, removed or changed.
- Programtically adjust all the settings related to each one of these
tools such as:
- Which mouse button to use for applying the tool (left, right and so on).
- What keyboard buttons to use for applying the tool. For example the right arrow can be used to increase the window width and the left button to decrease it.
- What cursor to use when the tool is activated.
- Apply the effect of the tool to a single image or to all images in a series.
- Apply the effect of the tool to a single series or to all series managed by the control.
- Apply the effect of the tool programmatically or through user interaction.
- Includes a function to easily convert mouse coordinates to bitmap coordinates.
- Events for mouse actions.
- Support to apply some action and adjust the MedicalViewer while an animation is running.
The screen shot below shows some of the setting of the window level tool that can be adjusted programmatically:
- Full control over the different properties of the display container, such as colors, cursors, rulers and so on.
The image below shows some of the settings that can be adjusted for the container
- Built-in ruler that adjusts based on the DPI of the image and the zoom or scale factor.
- Interpolated image display for higher quality.
Typical applications that can be built using this control
- High-end medical diagnostic workstations.
- Medical review and quality assurance stations.
- DICOM viewers.
- Light-weight viewers that are typically distributed on a CD with patient images.
- Web-based medical viewers.
